The little girl evidently appreciated the fact that all men and women are liars, for Punch records the following as the dialogue between her and her mother when she had been caught in a fib:
Mother: "It is very naughty to tell untruths, Kitty. Those who do so, never go to heaven."
Kitty: "Don't you ever tell an untruth, Mummy?"
Mother: "No, dear—never."
Kitty: "Well, you'll be fearfully lonely, won't you, with only George Washington?"

"The lady lecturer on dress wore nothing that was remarkable."
